The Maldivian Rufiyaa (MVR) is the official currency of the Maldives, issued by the Maldives Monetary Authority.
The modern “Randhiha Faheh” series showcases the country’s cultural heritage, traditional craftsmanship, and the natural beauty of the islands.
Current notes feature vibrant colour schemes, detailed illustrations, and advanced security features, including polymer substrates for improved durability in the Maldives’ humid, coastal climate.
These notes remain the primary legal tender across the country and are widely recognised throughout the region.

Before the introduction of the current enhanced‑security polymer series, the Maldives issued several earlier generations of Rufiyaa banknotes.
These withdrawn notes include older portraits, traditional motifs, and classic engraving styles reflecting the nation’s cultural and economic development throughout the late 20th century.
As the Maldives Monetary Authority modernised the currency, older issues were gradually replaced with clearer layouts, stronger security features, and more durable materials suited to the island environment.
Although no longer used in everyday transactions, earlier Rufiyaa notes still appear in stored belongings, travel documents, and long‑kept personal items.
At Thecurrencycounter.co.uk, we accept a wide range of outdated Maldivian Rufiyaa notes, including early paper issues, transitional designs, and denominations no longer seen in circulation.
